New techniques of multiple integral field spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The work of this thesis is to investigate new techniques for Integral Field Spectroscopy (IPS) to make the most efficient use of modem large telescopes. Most of the work described is aimed at the FMOS for the SUBARU 8m telescope.

Chip‐Integrated Metasurface‐GaAsSb Nanowire Array Photodetectors for Single‐Pixel Polarimetric Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A 2×2 multiplexed GaAsSb nanowire photodetector array integrated with L‐shaped metasurfaces is developed for miniaturized infrared polarimetry. Leveraging non‐radiating anapole states that facilitate near‐field enhancement, the device demonstrates strong polarization selectivity at 835 nm.

Using dimers to measure biosignatures and atmospheric pressure for terrestrial exoplanets

open access: yes, 2014
We present a new method to probe atmospheric pressure on Earth-like planets using (O-O) dimers in the near-infrared. We also show that dimer features could be the most readily detectable biosignatures for Earth-like atmospheres and may even be detectable

Hydration Features on Near-Earth Objects: Integrating New Data with Prior Results

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Near-Earth objects (NEOs) are excellent laboratories for testing processes that affect airless bodies, as well as informing us about solar system history. Though most NEOs are nominally anhydrous because they formed inside the solar system frost line and

Lunar‐Based Photothermal CO2 Reduction Strategy: Self‐Evolving Transient Active Interface and Band Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A self‐evolving Pd/Ov‐FeTiO3 photothermal catalyst, inspired by lunar soil, enables efficient extraterrestrial CO2 conversion. The formation of transient active interfaces and oxygen vacancies extends light absorption to the infrared range and optimizes electron transfer.

The Nova Synthetic Data Base: A Principal Component/AI Analysis of Novae Synoptic Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The Nova Synthetic Data Base (NSDB) is presented as the first publicly available database of synthetic spectra for classical nova shells, spanning an unprecedented range of physical parameters (e.g., ejecta mass, chemical composition, temperature, and ...

Design and development of an adaptive optics system in visible and near-infrared for Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics 2-meter telescope [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems, 2019
Robo-AO is the first robotic autonomous laser-guided adaptive optics (AO) system operating in the sky. It is a very economical AO system especially suitable for observations with 1- to 3-m class telescopes. A second Robo-AO system, which works both in the visible and near-infrared wavelengths, has been developed to improve the image quality of the 2-m ...

Imaging Electric Polarization Switching in Multilayer Graphene

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Domain wall sliding‐induced electric polarization switching is directly observed for the first time in multilayer graphene, enabled by a novel optical readout method. The polarization switching is realized upon application of global and local electric fields, and mechanical forces between neighboring polar domains of opposite out‐of‐plane polarizations

UWISH2 - the UKIRT Widefield Infrared Survey for H2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present the goals and preliminary results of an unbiased, near-infrared, narrow-band imaging survey of the first galactic quadrant (10° < l < 65°; ?1Graphic3 < b < +1Graphic3).
